Organisational Background 4 4. Strategic Plan 6 1 GEELONG GALLERY STRATEGIC PLAN 2020 – 2023 Endorsed by Geelong Gallery Board 21 September 2020 1. OUR PURPOSE Geelong Gallery’s purpose is to provide an experience of art that will enrich people’s lives. PILLARS Geelong Gallery’s purpose is underpinned by four pillars: 1. Geelong Gallery will deliver artistic and cultural advancement for the community thus making Geelong a more liveable City; 2. Geelong Gallery will bring economic benefit to the region through tourism arising from its exhibitions and events; 3. Geelong Gallery will connect and empower people by promoting equity, diversity, inclusion, access and lifelong learning; 4. Geelong Gallery will expand its premises to provide greater access to its collections and exhibitions, in order to significantly enhance the delivery of its aims in the first, second and third pillars. 2. INTRODUCTION This document summarises the strategic direction of Geelong Gallery for the period 2020–2023. This Plan is endorsed by the Geelong Gallery Board and supported by six key sub-committees of the Board focussed on the Governance and guidance of Gallery operations. The plan is implemented by Senior Management via detailed annual business plans. While many Gallery activities delivered are quantifiable, the primary outcomes of the Gallery’s core business — across exhibitions, learning and public programs, and visitor experience — are qualitative: beyond conventional accounting and measurement, and reliant on peer, popular and critical response in the short and long term, and on the cumulative effects of learning, engagement and self-determination.

This central theme of “Dragon Tails 2017: Hopes, Dreams and Realities” highlights not only the role of imagination in shaping the actions of Chinese-Australasians, but also the realities and challenges that Chinese-Australasians have historically encountered in pursuing their hopes and dreams. The Dragon Tails conferences promote research into the histories and heritage of Chinese people, their descendants and their associates, in Australasia (Australia and New Zealand). The conferences also encourage awareness of the connections of Chinese in Australasia with the histories of Chinese people, their descendants and their associates in other countries.
